Job Description

GIS Analyst - Contract to Hire

Contract | Full-Time | Waukegan, IL

Are you passionate about maps, data, and solving real-world challenges with geospatial technology? We’re seeking a GIS Analyst to support infrastructure, planning, and public works projects through powerful mapping and analysis tools.

This is a one-year contract role where you’ll play a hands-on role managing and maintaining GIS systems, developing digital maps and databases, and supporting internal departments with spatial data needs. You'll also contribute during emergency response planning and events — where accurate, real-time GIS insights are essential.

What You’ll Do:

  • Develop, maintain, and enhance GIS databases , maps, and online tools using ESRI ArcGIS
  • Create and manage ArcGIS Server services , web maps, and data layers
  • Provide support and training to internal users on GIS tools and workflows
  • Collaborate with planning, engineering, public works, and emergency response teams
  • Perform data collection using GPS devices and ensure data quality/accuracy
  • Convert, manage, and standardize GIS data from multiple sources
  • Assist with technical project coordination and documentation
  • Support emergency operations with GIS services during activations and exercises

What You Bring:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Geography, Urban Planning, Engineering , or a related field
  • 3+ years of experience with GIS platforms — especially ESRI ArcGIS 10.1+
  • Familiarity with SQL Server , shapefiles, metadata, and web mapping tools
  • Experience creating GIS products like custom maps, layers, and interactive apps
  • Strong organizational and communication skills
  • Ability to work independently and troubleshoot technical issues
  • Comfort working across departments and presenting GIS capabilities to non-technical users

Bonus If You Have:

  • Experience with ArcGIS Online , ArcGIS Enterprise , or scripting (Python, ModelBuilder)
  • Exposure to municipal government or public infrastructure projects
  • Experience with emergency response or field-based data collection workflows

Why This Role?

  • Make a direct impact on community planning, infrastructure, and emergency response
  • Work in a collaborative team with real visibility and responsibility
  • Great stepping stone for GIS professionals ready to grow into lead roles or specialized tracks
  • One-year contract with solid compensation: $40/hour

If you’re ready to apply your GIS skills to high-impact, public-facing projects — and gain experience in a role where your work directly supports smarter city planning — we want to hear from you.
